Christina Ricci Welcomes a Son

The actress, 34, and husband James Heerdegen recently welcomed their first child, a son, PEOPLE confirms.

Further details, including his name and birthdate, are not available, and a rep for Ricci has not commented.

Ricci and Heerdegen met on the set of her former show Pan Am, where Heerdegen was working as a camera technician.
They went public in February 2012 and announced their engagement a year later. “I can’t wait [to call him] ‘Husband’,” Ricci told PEOPLE prior to the wedding.

It’s nice hearing about a celebrity having a child after she got married. And with the timing it seems like she may have gotten pregnant on her honeymoon or right after. Hoping there relationship lasts.

What a crappy comment. If you don’t have something nice to say, just shut up.

I’m guessing D stands for Douche Bag.

Congratulations. Glad she is keeping the details private. Wish some other “celebrities” would follow suit.

Not sure I understand why some of you think it’s so wonderful when a celeb doesn’t announce when they have a baby, or don’t tell anyone what they named the baby, etc. When I had my first child, half the people I knew put the announcement of their child’s birth in the newspaper! They were thrilled to share their happy news with the world, and proud of what they named him/her. Most of us aren’t going to make comments like D, and shout about how ugly the dad is (he’s not ugly at all, just looks as if publicity junkets aren’t why he loves his wife), or how much they hate the baby’s name. Most of us are happy to hear the good news, and love to know the name, or see a picture just as we are when anyone else has a baby. Congrats to the happy couple, and I hope they are as thrilled as can be!
